"C… Hang in there. We can't let everything fall apart at this critical moment!"
A encouraged C, then turned his head and shouted at Killer B.
"B, is it not ready yet?"
His face was taut with anxiety as he stared fixedly at Killer B.
Killer B didn't speak. Instead, the Tailed Beast that already loomed like a massive mountain suddenly swelled again, expanding by another full circle.
A terrifying chakra fluctuation surged outward. The overwhelming shockwaves rolled through every corner of the barrier like a tidal wave.
Even though C exhausted himself trying to maintain it, one barrier wall after another still split open with irreversible cracks.
"It's ready!"
Just as A's eyes were about to split from staring and his heart was burning with impatience, the deep, rumbling voice of the Eight-Tails replaced the voiceless Killer B and roared out.
"It's the Eight-Tails' voice!"
That thought had only just flashed through A's mind when the barrier wall enclosing the three of them and the Tailed Beast was already completely covered in twisting, coiling cracks, like giant serpents crawling across it.
Crack!
Immediately afterward, a sound like shattering glass rang out.
At the same moment C threw his head back and collapsed to the ground, the barrier that completely enveloped and isolated the Tailed Beast Bomb began to peel away layer by layer, then shattered into fragments.
With the barrier gone, the fully transformed Killer B, along with a Tailed Beast Bomb so enormous it seemed capable of blotting out the blazing sun hanging over the Land of Fire's sky, was instantly exposed above the Konoha forest.
At the same time, centered on the Tailed Beast Bomb, wave after wave of violent shockwaves swept outward in all directions like a raging typhoon.
Within a radius of several hundred meters, the area had originally been filled with towering ancient trees.
Yet under the storm unleashed by B's Tailed Beast Bomb, hundreds of massive trees were ripped up by the roots, while countless birds and beasts were caught in the shockwaves and hurled high into the sky.
"The sky looks like it's gone dark!"
"What… what is that?"
"My god… such terrifying chakra!"
In the Valley of the End, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and the others, who had been quietly waiting for Garp to awaken from his sleep, suddenly changed expression.
A sense of foreboding abruptly flooded their hearts.
Even ninjas without sensory abilities could, at this moment, clearly feel the terrifying chakra fluctuations surging in from afar.
When Kushina, Fugaku, Might Duy, and the others kicked off the ground and leapt onto the heads of the statues of Hashirama and Madara.
The Eight-Tails, its body pale red, with eight octopus-like tentacles and a pair of enormous ox horns, along with a black chakra sphere that seemed to reach the very skies of the Land of Fire and overlap with the sun, instantly came into view.
"The Eight-Tails!"
"That's a Tailed Beast Bomb… and it's that big!"
"Damn it, why is the Eight-Tails' jinchūriki from the Cloud here? And how did he silently gather such an enormous Tailed Beast Bomb?"
At this sight, every Konoha ninja was struck pale with shock, sucking in cold breaths.
A Tailed Beast Bomb, even one casually formed by Shukaku, the One-Tail, possessed catastrophic destructive power.
Let alone the one before their eyes, which was not only condensed by the Eight-Tails, but was also unprecedented in scale and volume, something they had never seen in their lives.
They couldn't imagine what kind of horrifying devastation would occur once such a Tailed Beast Bomb detonated.
Perhaps… not just the Konoha forest, but even Konoha Village ten miles away would be affected. It might even be half-destroyed on the spot.
"This was a premeditated assassination…"
Shikaku stared at the Tailed Beast Bomb hovering above Killer B in the distance and instantly pieced everything together.
"These Cloud bastards really deserve to die. Not only did they go back on their word, they even dared to use a Tailed Beast Bomb to kill Lord Garp!"
He glanced down at Garp below, who was still blowing bubbles and sleeping soundly.
After plotting for so long, hiding along the only route back to Konoha, deploying the Eight-Tails' jinchuriki.
And using a barrier to silently condense such a massive Tailed Beast Bomb… all these arrangements made him think of one thing at once, Garp.
Only an assassination setup like this would ever be prepared for that man.
However, even though Shikaku had sorted out the situation, his intelligence felt as fragile as blank paper in the face of such sudden circumstances.
Or rather, even if he were given time to prepare, when facing the Tailed Beast Bomb that Killer B had formed with everything he had, he would most likely still be helpless.
"Even Susanoo… no, not even two fully formed Susanoo could possibly block it!"
Fugaku and Shisui looked at the chakra sphere in the distance, one even larger than the Eight-Tails itself, and felt their limbs go cold.
"Damn it!"
Kushina froze for a brief moment, then immediately snapped back to her senses.
After cursing aloud, she ignored the Nine-Tails' furious opposition and began crazily drawing out its Tailed Beast chakra to undergo partial Tailed Beast transformation.
"Is it in time?"
Watching red chakra tails rapidly sprout behind Kushina, Orochimaru, Tsunade, and the others felt no relief at all.
Instead, their sense of urgency only intensified, mixed with anxiety and unease.
Aside from the sleeping Garp, they knew that the only one capable of turning the tide was Kushina, or rather, a fully transformed Kushina.
As for the others, whether it was two pairs of Mangekyo Sharingan, or Might Duy, whose true identity as Garp's student had already been revealed.
None of the Konoha ninjas present believed they had the ability to resolve the despair-inducing Tailed Beast Bomb before their eyes.
However, although Kushina's transformation was fast, she was not a perfect jinchuriki after all.
When her seventh red chakra tail, surging like a tidal wave, shot into the sky, and a ferocious Nine-Tails armor wrapped around her body.
The gigantic Tailed Beast Bomb in the distance, hovering in the Land of Fire's sky, overlapping with the sun and pulling at the nerves of every Konoha ninja…
…moved.
"Quick… go wake Lord Garp!"
